OLP / OEP

The OLP and OEP models offer lift capacities of 1,200 to 2,500kg, while the OEP comes equipped with Ergolift – forks which can rise to waist height, creating an ergonomically-positioned setting-down surface for the order picker.

This ergonomic design is found elsewhere on the truck, as with the other models in the O-Range. A low-step in height and the 3D Step-In design helps increase efficiency and reduces the strain that can occur during intense order picking. The XControl steering wheel also puts the truck’s vital controls at the operator’s fingertips and is designed to give the driver better visibility when reversing, while also reducing strain.

During picking it is common for the operator to walk through the truck while carrying goods. To make this easier, the backrest height is optimised to provide excellent back support while also being low enough to prevent the operator hitting their elbows. In combination with a market leading platform width, the O-Range offers quicker and more ergonomic picking operation than ever.

Ergonomic step-in design

O-Range models have a step-in height of only 123mm or 150 mm for the high lifting platform version, lower than the industry average for trucks of this kind. A few millimetres may not seem like a big difference, but when the driver steps on and off the truck hundreds of times a day for weeks, months and years on end, this small distance significantly reduces the strain placed on the body by order picking – meaning work can be carried out more efficiently and with fewer injuries.

A very narrow backrest significantly reduces walking distance between load and platform. The step-is further optimised with the 3D Step-In design. The bevelled sides of the entry to the driver’s platform significantly increase the angles from which the driver can get on the truck, once again making work smoother and quicker. And once they’re in the truck, the gripped surface and dampening system below the platform makes driving more comfortable, without restricting mobility.

Powerful acceleration and speed

In a logistics operation as time-consuming and expensive as order picking, a truck’s speed and acceleration make a big difference. Instant Launch, a key feature of the O-Range, ensures a quick start for the operator every time. This technology allows the driver to accelerate immediately while boarding the truck, without having to get into place to operate the presence switch. The truck reacts instantly, and set-off time is significantly lower when compared to conventional order picking trucks.

The Extra Boost feature can give the driver an extra dose of acceleration if they need it. By pressing both acceleration keys simultaneously, the acceleration is boosted and the truck reaches its top speed within seconds. This feature is perfect if longer distances have to be covered.

Innovative steering wheel

The XControl steering wheel on the O-Range offers the driver increased freedom and range of movement during operation. The accelerator and fork/platform controls are easily reached on the wheel, and are mirrored on both sides, making operation just as easy with either hand. The wheel can also be grasped and the accelerator operated from the top, allowing the driver a much better position to look behind the truck while reversing, without needing to strain the neck. The accelerator can also be operated via walk beside buttons at the rear of the truck, allowing the operator to move the truck without getting on it while picking
